Enantioselective Synthesis of Axially Chiral Biaryls by the Pd- Catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura Reaction: Substrate Scope and Quantum Mechanical Investigations

We report efficient syntheses of axially chiral biaryl amides in yields ranging from 80−92%, and with enantioselectivity in the range 88−94% ee employing an asymmetric Suzuki−Miyaura process with Pd(OAc)[subscript 2] and KenPhos as ligand. These studies demonstrate that electron-rich and electron-de...
